Patent for a simple and durable ironing table that is sturdy when in use and can be folded when not in use. The table is hinged to and held up by a vertical piece of wood. Two sets of legs cross and are centrally pivoted together, one being stopped by the vertical board. When not in use, the table swings up and rests on the board.
